Retrospect
MERIT
Price: $147.00
Feels like: A hug from someone who still knows your favourite coffee order.
A scent that lingers like a love note on your skin, Retrospect is a masterclass in subtle seduction. It begins with a soft, clean opening, like fresh linen and early morning light, before revealing a floral heart that feels as familiar as a past love. As the day unfolds, this extrait de parfum melts into a warm embrace of musk, vanilla, and moss, creating an intimate second-skin effect. With nearly 30% fragrance oil, it’s long-lasting and undeniably alluring—perfect for those who prefer their scent to whisper rather than shout.
Chemical Addiction
Who is Elijah
Price: $179.00
Feels like: Stepping out of the shower and into the arms of your lover.
It’s your fearless new fragrance obsession that will pull you in with every breath. Who is Elijah’s latest fragrance opens with a bright, charged rush of Mandarin, Lemon, and Bergamot—sharp and exhilarating. Blackcurrant and White Florals weave a hypnotic trance of sweetness and sensuality. The dry down is intimate and magnetic, with Pink Musk and Blonde Woods melting into the skin, leaving a warm, second-skin effect. Soft yet commanding, this scent is dangerously addictive and utterly unforgettable.
Functional Fragrance - Energy
Kit:
Price: $36.00
Feels like: A nature-filled getaway with someone who makes you laugh.
Need a little extra spark to get you in the bedroom? This invigorating, ‘functional’ roll-on fragrance is designed to sharpen the senses and boost your mood… and your performance. Zesty Sweet Orange and Mandarin burst through at first spritz, giving an immediate rush of freshness. The heart notes of Ylang Ylang and Orange Blossom add a subtle floral sensuality, while the base of Cedarwood, Vetiver, and Verbena offers grounding warmth. This scent doesn’t just sit on your skin—it wakes you up, fuels your confidence, and helps you become your inner Demi Lovato (Confident, of course).
Yum Boujee Marshmallow
Kayali
Price: $171.00
Feels like: A heart-shaped box of chocolates, but make it perfume.
If V-Day was in a bottle, it would smell like this—sweet, indulgent, and utterly irresistible. The first spritz offers the crisp freshness of Pink Lady Apple and Italian Lemon, setting the stage for a flirtatious night ahead. Just wait until the heart notes take over—airy Pink Marshmallow, juicy Strawberry, and delicate Coconut Flakes will wrap you in a playful sweetness that feels as comforting as it is delicious. The dry down of Whipped Vanilla, Raspberry Sugar, and Pink Musk lingers with warm temptation, making this fragrance such a treat, either for yourself or your sweet thing.
Red Theory
Aerre
Price: $39.00
Feels like: Swiping on red lipstick before swiping left.
Heartbreak? We don’t know her. Inspired by the confidence-boosting power of a bold red lip, Red Theory is the ultimate fragrance for feeling desirable, empowered, and ready for whatever comes next. Bright citrus notes of Mandarin and Bergamot make a striking first impression before melting into a rich floral heart of Rose, Orchid, and Jasmine. As it settles, a base of creamy Vanilla and earthy Cedarwood gives this scent a warm, seductive finish. Wear this one and watch heads turn.
Posh Chocolate shower gel
Lush
Price: $32.00
Feels like: A warm, melty brownie straight out of the oven.
Say “I love you” with chocolate—or at least smell like it. This ultra-rich shower gel blends the deep, velvety aroma of Cocoa with the creamy sweetness of Hazelnut Milk and Vanilla Absolute. It lathers into a silky, indulgent foam that leaves your skin feeling soft and smelling like the best dessert you’ve ever had. Whether you’re pampering yourself or sharing a steamy shower with someone special, this is a must-have for chocoholics (but please don’t eat it).
Deep Fig
Odesse
Price: $89.95
Feels like: Saying yes to a spontaneous poetry reading in a dimly lit café.
For those who like their love stories dark and mysterious, Deep Fig is an intoxicating blend of earthy Patchouli, smoky Tea, and lush Orchid (think the Tom Ford variety). Bergamot and Jasmine add a delicate brightness, while a musky base of Osmanthus and Freesia keeps things sensual. This scent is layered and enigmatic, evolving as you wear it—just like the best romances.
Outlands
Amouage
Price: $739.00
Feels like: A romantic winter road trip to the southern Highlands.
For the dreamers and wanderers, Outlands is an olfactory journey. A bright opening of Lemon and citrus gives way to a dense, verdant heart of Patchouli, evoking lush forests and sun-dappled adventures. Finally, an Amber-infused base creates a warm, hearty finish. This scent is like an uncharted map—full of mystery and endless possibility.
Rose Exposed
Tom Ford
Price: $295.00
Feels like: A first kiss in the back of a taxi at midnight.
This isn’t your grandmother’s rose perfume. Rose Exposed is an untamed take on the classic floral, blending lush Rose Essence with Black Leather and White Pepper for a fragrance that is both elegant and rebellious. The result? A scent that’s as alluring as a love affair that shouldn’t work—but somehow does. Inhale, smile, exhale.

This delightful and unexpected scent keeps up with you—it’s effortless, radiant, and endlessly wearable. Twenty Four Seven bursts open with fresh Zesty Citrus, bright and invigorating like a balmy Summer’s day. Jasmine adds quiet elegance, while Sandalwood, Musk, and Vanilla create a warm, lingering embrace. Light yet long-lasting, this mist moves with you from sunrise to midnight, perfect for any moment that feels just right.
I Want Choo Le Parfum
Jimmy Choo

Let’s raise a toast (or should we say, a spritz) to those empowering friendships that get through week on week. Jimmy Choo’s ‘I Want Choo’ is a love letter to the women who embody confidence crossed with playfulness. It’s a daring, yet welcoming blend of woody floral amber, coupled with sweet fruity pear and white flowers that exude a charming, yet cheeky sense of fun and sophistication from first spritz.
